I’m currently in the negative right now due to advertising expenses to promote the project. “You have to spend money to make money” as that old saying goes! I plan to add value to this project by spending on advertising to promote this project up-front so sponsorships will be more attractive to potential advertisers in the long run.

Explanation of Income and Expense Categories

Google Adsense: This is the total amount of income generated by placing Google Adsense ads on the blog.
Private Ad Sales: This is the total amount of income generated from banner and text advertisements.
Affiliate Commissions: This is income generated by placing various affiliate advertisements throughout the blog.
Kontera: Income generated by Kontera contextual advertising links placed throughout the blog.
Contributions: Income generated by contributions made by supports and readers of this project.
Advertising Expenses: Total advertising expenses from promoting this project.
Donations: I’ve been debating whether to add Donations under the expense section since it’s a voluntary expense, but since I’m treating this project as a business I think it’s important to track all outgoing cash. Donations are voluntary contributions I have made to non-profit organizations.
